This game difficulty dickwaving is getting old. Video game related pissing contests are getting pretty old period.

But how will people know I'm an enormous dickwad if I don't brag about how I beat I Wanna Be the Guy while blindfolded, in traction, and being sedated for an upcoming heart surgery?

Honestly, if you want to play a good game? Play Legend of Mana. It's not particularly hard, but it's very, very good. If you want to play a hard game, get a Kaizo Mario "game." It'll be an absolute piece of ****, but it will be hard!

You know if you make a video game too damn hard nobody will want to play it because its too fucking hard
Nobody wants to play the same level for a full hour to perfect some goddamn tactic or jump or whatever. There's a definite line between challenging and just annoyance.

I agree that many games are too dumbed down and have too much handholding, but I don't want them to go back to being arcade hard either, that doesn't really make them accessible to more modern demographics (and by that I mean anyone who got into gaming after about the mid 90's). Classic games were designed to screw you over so the arcades could get another quarter out of you. Now that that's no longer the case, that style of gaming isn't really relevant.

It's funny because when Kirby showed it in spp it was a hell of a lot worse. Even creepier, because it moved at a slower pace. Unfortunately it was above sig limits, so I had to get it shortened. I think it's great lol

Exactly. You know, in retrospect, this is probably the only thing I learned from reading Animal Farm.

Completely unrelated to the cops topic but... I've lived near St. Louis for the majority of my life and I went to the Anheuser-Busch brewery for the first time today. Free tour and free beer. (What's not to like about that?) And I actually found a beer that I like so that's cool I guess.

Incidentally, I also live near a major brewery (and more microbreweries than you can shake a stick at), but the only time I went on the tour was when I was like three or four.

Holy hell, is that the song by The Outlaws? I had no idea any people anywhere even knew they existed (except Cain Nightroad but I don't even remember the last time he was on).

I dunno I'm not a huge gun person and don't really like games with guns (Other than Mass Effect but Mass effect is much more than just a shooter)

You should play Valkyria Chronicles. It will revise your opinion on games with guns in a roundabout way.
